This role is open to both experienced voice professionals and newcomers with a naturally clear, expressive voice and a good recording setup — prior voice‑acting experience is a plus but not required.

• Strong command of intonation, diction, and emotional range

• Ability to follow scripts precisely while maintaining natural delivery

• Reliable availability for 5‑10 hours per week over the project duration

• [IMP]: Your voice may be cloned for the client's CX AI Agent so please only apply if you are okay with voice cloning. Your recordings will not be sold or reused outside of this specific use case.
